Thank you. You know, it really helps is when you hit the unmute button and it unmutes.
I was just talking to myself.
I said, come see what all the talk is about at Unreal Kingdoms of Bedtime Creation, Cyber
API Club and all the partner communities.
Thank you for being here tonight.
Pacific Standard Time, 9pm Eastern, 8 Central. For those who care about Central Time, because
I certainly don't. But thanks for being here. Hey, you know what? So here's the thing. I can
switch between wide spectrum on speaker and my headset. but the the thing that I've realized is

Got me dreamin' with my demons, pick a side
Got me dreamin' with my demons, pick a side
Got me dreamin' with my demon pick inside Dude, I just gotta ask you before you start on your thing.
You said you're dreaming with your demon.
Well, my specific demon would be...
I don't remember what token it is, but it's Flamin' Heart.
It's got Flamin' Armor demon.
That's my demon. As far as in my life i don't got any i'm blessed i don't have any demons
let's go dude what's up guy i'm doing i'm doing actually quite well i mean
things the reality is is that i could be stressed out but, but there's a part of me that just isn't stressed out at all.
And so I'm going through the motions.
I look for jobs because it's supposed to be what I'm doing so I can keep being on unemployment.
But the reality is that I just don't really know.
I haven't gotten any callbacks.
Obviously, if I got a callback, if I got a freaking got a freaking response hey would like to interview you i i would do it
so far that hasn't happened so i'm not scared yet i'm not scared because i know what's coming
so it's just coming dude we got we got the trifecta on the stage man i don't think all
three of us have been on the stage maybe i was I was going to say it's, it's happened before. It's definitely happened.
I think before, but this is definitely once in like, uh, I don't know, a year, six months,
eight months type scenario.
So it hasn't happened that often.
Now that I'm here, can you guys even hear me?
Hey, Boardwalk, can you hear what you did?
I was just kidding. because i of course heard
you all right yeah nope i'm here i finally stopped for the evening just ate dinner so
i'm good to go hell yeah let's go man what'd you eat uh blt and two bud lights how about that well since you asked him what'd you have
what'd you have boardwalk uh i had some pan fried chicken with some garlic noodles
you know what i oh so i had steak the last two nights and because i bought this like family pack
and uh because it was buy one and it was buy one get one so i got a family pack with a
buy one get one so i like i had steak the night before last i had steak last night and tonight
i was like you know i just don't really want steak so my wife made she made this really amazing tuna
salad and so we had tuna salad sandwiches and and dude i love tuna yeah hell yeah so what's good man i've seen you guys chit-chatting in the
team chat today i man i'm still getting over this i got home from work today man i was
sicker than the dog i just i went to sleep i'm like i can't do it so i woke up and i seen you
guys were in the middle of it but i i had to take some medicine eat some dinner and
get ready for this space so i could get up here because, you know, I should be up here, right?
We're just chit-chatting, man.
Chit-chatting about all the stuff we need to get ready and, you know, working on stuff
for the marketplace and just everything going on in general and things that we need to try
So the team actually asked if they could be involved in our weekly meetings.
I don't see a problem with it.
I think it's a good idea.
So maybe we'll move forward with that.
That was exactly what went on.
And the cool thing is, here's also the other thing,
and I'm just going to give him a shout-out here.
It was initiated by Matt, a you know he he was like hey i've got some questions or i got
some things i want to discuss jump let's jump into the vc and the team chat and uh and i didn't see
that for like 20 minutes and then i saw it so i was like okay let me jump in here and I jumped in it was him and
boardwalk in there and it's not boardwalk sorry dropkick and you know we had a good conversation
and and then we Jay Milano jumped in and then you know which day was was was paying attention he was
in there and I had to jump because I had to go you you know, do dishes for the space. So, but it was cool because it wasn't like, and I'm just being fully transparent.
So, you know, that people care about the things we're doing.
And, you know, it wasn't like Boardwalk or myself or Witcher.
Like, hey, let's have a meeting.
We have to have a meeting.
No, this was something that, you know, somebody who's, dude, an amazing, like, top, like, top notch.
I can't give the dude enough credit.
Community member was like, hey, that's also on the team.
He was like, hey, I got some questions.
Sometimes those are some of the end up being some of the best meetings, right?
And no doubt i mean shadow aka matt aka whatever he wants to call himself next week is an amazing dude man 100 he puts his heart and soul into this project and and uh man we're
lucky to have him lucky that i got rugged on a coin with him like two years ago and he's here today so let's go so uh changing the subject
just a little bit you know uh was something was super cool and i gotta give a shout out let me
let me just get you in here okay good good so uh you know some of you may have noticed if you're
paying attention to the the different floor prices whether you, I look at it all the time, not because of care that
much. Honestly, I don't think it really matters other than I know the lower the floor price,
the better the entry for new people coming in. So if there are people that are still sitting on
sidelines or there's some people that are in here, they're like, you know what, I really just want
more. You know, the price going lower is a freaking good thing as far as that goes.
But one thing that I really like seeing is where all of a sudden we have our companions.
We've got the companions.
There's only 1,000 of them.
We haven't even minted them all yet.
But you've got your diamonds, your ruby, and your emeralds.
And they all have different benefits.
But the reality is they're super exclusive.
I don't really care what you have.
If you have a companion, you've got something that's super exclusive.
When you consider that by the time we launch,
there could be five, there could be 10 million people
that want to be involved in playing the multiverse, metaverse,
first ever cross-console P2M game by Unreal Kingdoms
on PlayStation, Steam, steam mac and soon to be
mobile that you look at the the price and and there was a companion that got listed it happened
because earlier in the week somebody did a wet offer hey shit happens people got to do what they
want to do okay i'm not downing you i'm just telling the story okay 0.032 okay 0.0329 or something like
that someone took a wet offer on a companion and immediately because whoever that the person
accepted that wet offer was a bot so um so they relisted it not for one eth which is what it's been at, but 0.0199 or some stupid number like that.
Either that's ridiculous.
Only a bot would do something that dumb, okay?
Because that's what it was.
But then, you know, so I put in the team chat.
I was like, hey, you know what?
Maybe we should, you know, actually, actually no I'm not going to say that I figure
is is that all of a sudden Reaper's
swoops that thing off the floor because that bot
took it from .012 or 1399
was able to pick up a freaking
at that price and then of course this is what's
the best part is now when you look at open c the person that had theirs listed for like months at
0.36 either they expired they just decided to delist for some reason i don't know it's just
not there anymore so on open c point or excuse me 1.25 ETH on companions.
And if you check out, oh, it's the same on Magic Eden.
That's an amazing situation.
You tell really long stories.
Well, I try to be descriptive. That was a great story, though.
I wanted to paint a picture.
I like to paint pictures.
I think that's pretty cool.
That's still cheap as fuck.
I'm just going to tell you guys that now.
Kyle alluded to it, right?
Like, we're going to have potentially multi-millions of people running through here in the very, very near future.
And they're going to see the benefits of the people that have the companions, and they're going to want to get that, right?
It's not going to be immediate, but it's going to happen all at once.
And it's going to be fun to watch.
Like, the people that have multiples and they can rent them out like that's going to be good game
for them right um but you know we're still minting too right not that we're trying to push it because
you know the whole philosophy was let's you know help cake get their mints and you know let them
get the funds they need to to push through to the next level so i pretty much just don't even
talk about it anymore but but once this thing goes live like that's they're still there right and
and they're not going to be there long in my opinion um the whole thing is going to be fun
to watch over the next six months to see where this all shakes out where we where we level off
at um you know it's i i don't even know i mean i could guess you know three five seven eighths
right but i have no idea i don't think we'll level off boardwalk i think we'll keep going up
up up up honestly i mean i think it's going to get to the point where there's just none listed
right you know it'll be a random one here or there probably but for some crazy price but i mean
overall i think you're right like it's the the demand is going to be there and you know there's i don't know once the rewards start
coming in i think it's going to be really hard to buy anything from any of these projects well
the marketing rewards the market rewards is definitely one but it's the idea that you can
also rent them so it's like okay so think about this they're sold out they're all minted and there's none
listed now what do you think i i bet and i hate to say it this way because i just i'm just gonna
make a prediction based off what i just said when you think about okay yeah you've got people that
hold a thousand of them they're sold out now and there's none enlisted so no one can buy them
so to me the people that rent them out could make more money just off that than they could off marketing rewards.
It's a definite potential because, yeah, you can make money off marketing rewards based off the revenue that's coming in on the game, which is also super exciting.
Finally, I was like, fuck it, I'm going to do the math.
And I have it memorized now.
So like with a treasure hunt that we've got coming up,
we want to get 100,000 people to sign up.
We figure if K-3 is 5 to 10 million, getting 100,000,
I mean, it's really very conservative.
It might be more than that.
But let's just say 100,000.
And at $5 a piece, that's $500,000.
Okay, well, I can tell you exactly if you are a holder of an og how many how much money
you'll make per just based on the treasure hunt okay so you have 11.66 per og 15 per companion
500 per island holder so of course if you if you multiply it to how many times you hold.
So that's one way, just my point of bringing that up is just basically giving it so that you can see
just on marketing rewards, how much you can make. But then we don't really even know what the rental
rental market's going to be that's the one thing that's kind of the anomaly we don't know
market's going to be. That's the one thing that's kind of the anomaly. We don't know.
but i just i predict that people will make more money off the rental market than they will off
the market rewards because of how the scarcity of the nfts themselves
yeah i mean it's it's hard to say right? They very well could be correct.
Like I said, it's going to be fun to watch how it plays out.
We all speculate and this and that and whatever.
All I know is what we're about to do in the gaming space and the NFT space.
It's going to shock the world. And nobody even knows about us still.
I mean, people are starting to pay attention, but it's the, you know, we're still inside
And there's all these, you know, noisy crews that are, you know, all over the place.
And I don't say that in a bad way, like whatever, like there's good companies that are out there
and good NFT projects, good people.
But, you know, everybody's like in their own bubble.
Like if you were like in the coins and you looked on bubble maps right like that's the nft ecosystem right there's all
these bubbles all over and it's hard for people to even find out about your project you know unless
a holder of our project goes into their community and talks to them and somebody gets curious you
know i mean that's kind of how it works because we don't do a lot of marketing or anything like
our holders you know they make posts and you know i make posts like crazy but then there's the
algorithm so does it reach a person like you don't know right um it's it's crazy how small web3 is
yet how big it is right like the the crypto twitter whatever you call it back in the day right
it it really is well the great thing about this the whole thing with unreal kingdoms is that
so there's been i what i've heard and i'm i'm pretty sure i'm right on this and you'll correct
me but there's been a total of six hundred dollars worth of marketing been spent thus far
yet the number the last time now it's probably more by now so
let's just i'll just make a quick very conservative estimate because the last number i heard was 3.2
million so let's just say it's 3.3 million 3.3 million people have signed up on steam and
playstation to download a game and that doesn't even include xbox which is
another reason why we're grateful that we're going to get it hopefully a couple other weeks
once it is live on the xbox ability for people to add it to their wish list but so when you when
you think about that it's the the numbers and the potential and how many people are going, because again,
you don't have to be a holder of bedtime or a cake or any of the partner
projects to be able to play the game.
You don't have to know even what an NFT is to be able to play the game.
And so we're going to see people coming in that are,
have don't know what crypto is.
Maybe they know what crypto is,
but they don't certainly care
about nfts or anything about it coming in and it's it's going to be a tidal wave and i'm super
excited that for one is that the communities that we have are very strong and educated and they know
what's going on they believe in what's going on so as all these people influx in there's a a super welcoming
committee for especially in bedtime i can say that for certain in cake i can say it for certain
because those are discords that i'm in for the main partner projects but uh i i can't wait for
what is going to happen because there's so much and And again, my point overall was that with such little marketing,
that many people have signed up already.
Once the game is live and there's real marketing behind it,
oh, again, actually I mentioned this earlier in Discord,
I'm glad our Discord is Totengaden
because could you imagine 50,000 to 100,000 people jumping into our Discord?
I mean, it would be fun for about an hour, right?
But then it's like, all right, we've got to manage this.
We would need someone in there literally full-time just to answer questions.
Like 24 hours a day, it would be like answer questions full-time.
You have 50,000 to 100,000 people jumping on our Discord.
And, I mean, we're going to have to do that in the game already, right?
Like, that's part of the, you know, management of our own worlds, right?
Like, I mean, you would just multiply that times two if you had to do it in Discord as well.
Well, it truly now puts new meaning to the benefit of a holder by having the Discord.
Because you have some specific one-on-one personal interaction with you, with me, with Witchadad, with Shadow, with Jay Milano, with Dropkick, with Brad, with Chad,
I mean, with Code, with as many people as you can think of. And yes, if you tag Code in the
bedtime Discord, he'll get it, okay? So, I mean, because he's in there. So, and I'm not saying do
it. I'm not saying do that because MFR is freaking busy.
My point was, is that it's something that you realize how just being a holder, there's our actual additional benefits have nothing to do with financial compared to if 50 to 100,000 to 250,000 to 5 million people all of a sudden are playing the game.
They're not going to have the same access.
They're not going to because they're not holders.
And there's only 3,000 OGs that can be.
There's only 1,000 companions that can be.
And you could potentially have one and not the other.
But either way, you have access.
If you all of a sudden decide,
the only thing I want in this world
is just to be an island holder.
I don't need an OG or a companion.
You just want to be an island holder.
is when you add them all together,
3,000 plus 1,000 plus 10.
that's the most people we can have
in our Discord at any one one time it doesn't even matter
how many people are involved in the whole thing that's going on with the multi-veterious cross
console p2e game on playstation and steam it doesn't matter but it's super cool when you
think about it that there's that many people that want to be where you are right now yeah i mean absolutely it's gonna be fun i mean and i've talked about it for a long time too like
you know enjoy these quiet times while we've gotten all know each other you know and um
it's the all the slow couple gms here and whatever, like days that we have here and there, like those are actually amazing.
If you think about what's about to happen, because, I mean, we're going to be everywhere.
We're going to be having to answer, you know, support things and different things within the game.
We're going to have to really manage, you know, anything that does come in through our discord, because, I mean, you know how people are.
They're not all honest right so I mean we're gonna have to really be on our our toes about
that one and I mean because we do have a channel that is um not token gated right um but at least
it's only one and we can really monitor that and and we it's and it's the Filipino channel but we
also have Filipinos in there that you know will tag us immediately if something doesn't seem right, which, you know, and that's just our community, right?
Like, the amazing thing is we have, I would say, all good people in our Discord.
I mean, is there somebody lurking in the shadows?
Maybe, but as far as I know, and I'm pretty on top of it, you know, between, especially between me and Shadow, like, I know we stalk the people that join our stuff if we don't know them, right?
Like, the Welcome Channel, like, we're watching, we're waiting to see, like, what are they going to do, you know?
Well, we had a situation, actually, this last week with, well, at least since Saturday, i in the filipino channel um there was definitely
something that didn't look right and somebody tagged me now i initially when i first looked
at it i was like oh they're tagging me because they want me to have attention to this why and
so i'm looking at it and i'm like this is definitely this is something not right okay
this is something not right so i i okay honestly at moment, I don't recall that I go into the team chat
and said something and, or whatever, wherever I went to,
all I know is, is it Matt, aka Shadow in the Discord,
because he's Matt in here in the space.
So if you're in the space and you're looking, you're not following the dude,
follow the dude, follow the dude.
Because in Discord, it's Shadow.
And he was like, handled.
See, I don't even know how to do that.
I'm pretty sure I got the permissions to do so.
I'm sure that if I wanted to ban somebody in Discord, I probably could.
I have never done it before.
So I actually don't know.
But do is on it and and it was uh well deserved because it was uh it was definitely a fishing you know i don't know what it was but it wasn't it wasn't legit that's all we got first 10 000
people to as soon as you hear that like you're instant banded and i mean if you don't know how
to ban i'll just tell you really quick.
I guess I've always kind of handled the Discord for the most part with Matt.
But you just click on their name.
And you scroll to bottom, and you can either kick them or you can ban them
and decide what you want to do.
You just click on their little PFP and scroll to bottom, and you have options.
Can I do that to anybody? Old powers you options new powers can be can i do that to
anybody old powers you never knew right now if i just want if i could like i see polka dot posted
in here in our chat i could just be like click on this freaking pfp and i believe you could
ban anyone except me oh there it is because i can i definitely block the person i can do that for
sure i'm just checking i mean look at that real time it's not gonna happen if you're is he in here
is he in here right now he's not in here he's not in here okay sorry dude i wasn't serious i was just
i was just testing to see. I just wanted to see.
Yeah, it's actually a simple thing.
I'm surprised you didn't know that from us
working on other projects way
back in the day. Open ModView.
Going down the rabbit hole.
These things I've just never done before.
I just haven't had a specific need.
I keep trying to bring Witchy Dad back up.
Yeah, he's having some issues.
He's definitely having technical issues.
So while that being said, if there's anybody in the crowd that would love to come up and have a conversation with us,
of course, you know, oh, there he is.
Yeah, you got all three of us here you got like
literally maybe the entire i hear you dude i we got we got i keep losing connection we got the
entire team we got the entire ownership of bedtime in the speaker panel and so if you have any
questions at all because i mean okay i'm looking through the i'm looking through the crowd and 100
of the people that i can see because i don't see if there are any anonymous listeners,
I can see that 100% of the people that are in here are bedtime holders.
So, of course, if you've never spoken to us before, if you have any questions,
we just wanted to chit-chat, dude, we're like seriously in the family here.
So there's no reason not to
but if you don't want to that's okay we don't have to make this a super long space we can cut
it off i at least have one more song to play and i can play the freaking bedtime songs over and
over and over i have no problem doing that either uh because hey you know what i don't know if if
is shorty and holder i know i know they they're in our
spaces a lot and i know they do a lot of you know grinding for us on x but i don't know if
they are an actual holder or not well first uh oops sorry i was trying to invite oops you you
got it uh no she's definitely a holder yeah i'm I'm like, here's how I believe so.
And Shorty, you can give me a thumbs up or a thumb down.
I'm like 99% I gave you a bedtime.
Yeah, I couldn't remember.
I mean, you must have done it.
I'm pretty sure I gave Shorty a bit of time myself personally.
And whether it was with my current account or my normal account that got banned,
but I'm pretty sure it was from this account, I'm pretty sure that I gave Shorty.
So, I mean, obviously the only person, there's no one in here other than Primates Board Club,
they follow bedtime and we follow bedtime we follow them back so i mean i have to assume
they're a holder but other than that i'm like pretty certain there's everyone that's in this
room is older yeah you're probably right let's go no uh was there something we were talking about before that because otherwise i'm gonna
i think we can let witchy talk before he gets kicked off again
i don't know oh yeah we need to let woodart talk too lost so
yeah like every 30 seconds i get a message your connection was lost you said my connection was
lost because here's the thing okay because I thought we were saying, because sometimes it'll give you the message that says
the host's connection is interrupted or bad.
Because when Bob Space wrote on Thursday the first time,
before it happened, I got a message on my phone that said,
your host connection space is troubled or bad or has lost or something like
that and then it was you know after that that it wrote so you're you're saying you got one that
says yours specifically yes yes yes the reason yeah it keeps saying mine's lost. I wonder if it's not my VPN or something that's causing conflicts.
The reason why I ask, and I'm just saying this,
because there's a couple of things mechanically with spaces
that we've talked about in the last week,
whether it's our space or with CakeBob.
So I don't use Wi-Fi when I'm on spaces.
I use my cell data. So I'm on T-Mobile I'm on spaces. I use my cell phone. I use my cell data.
So I'm on T-Mobile, and that's what I use.
I don't put it on Wi-Fi because I've found that if I'm on spaces with Wi-Fi,
So I said I would ask this when I first started the space.
But for those who are here that heard the songs at the beginning was there any cut
i mean and i want i want every detail like okay you got to realize for like 20 years of my life
i sold i was involved in car audio in some way shape or form so uh like if there's an audio
issue i want to hear it so was there any cutting in and out or was the music just fine?
When I heard it sounded just fine.
Yeah, man, I thought the same thing.
I didn't hear any skip, nothing, man.
Like Bob's music the other night, it was in and out, in and out.
But no, you're sounding good.
So here's the thing is that I took a recommendation from a person,
and I'll just give them a shout out.
It was 6'5 Beats a couple years ago.
And I don't know what it is because Bob said on the space,
because I asked him straight out on Thursday.
Are you using wide spectrum with a phone, with speaker, and that's's it you don't have a mic hooked up while you're playing music
because it doesn't matter how loud i play it it seems to you know come through the only time it
doesn't is if i look down at my phone and i'm accidentally still on voice isolation or I'm on standard because I've listened back to spaces. I, anytime I do a space, not every time, but, uh, I definitely do listen back to my spaces
so I can hear whether it's a space I've done with bedtime or I've done a space anywhere
I have spaces recorded that are, are still bookmarked in from like two years ago, uh,
that I've in my computer. So I can go back
and listen. My point is, is that I listened to them and they tend to sound fine. I found again,
I have just do some cheap ass computer speakers that I had. I bought, dude, I'm not kidding.
It was from a computer that I bought back in like 2006 those are my computer speakers and i
have them plug in my laptop and i use my phone for the space and then i put and then like right now
i have a headset in but if i was to play music i would pull the freaking plug out because it's got
the little dongle on the end you know got a wired headset i'm not i'm not the bluetooth fucker i got
a wired headset with that little connector piece that goes down
at the bottom and sticks in the bottom of your iphone and then uh and then i'll rip that out
real quick and i go back to speaker and put it on uh voice size or uh what is it wide spectrum and
that's how i play the music and it seems to come through just fine so i'm not really sure why
some people have issues in music.
Man, you got to get yourself up.
You got to get a Bluetooth, man.
They're a lot better than they used to be, man.
My point is that my speakers, the computer to speakers,
like if I was doing this upstairs, the difference is tonight, other than a Saturday, like normal Saturday.
Tonight, I'm in my space.
I'm like downstairs in my space.
Just as I freaking say something.
So I'm downstairs in my space by myself where normally upstairs there's the speaker and it's Bluetooth.
by myself, where normally upstairs, there's the speaker, and it's Bluetooth.
So I can have my computer playing Bluetooth to that and play the music that I'm recording
But, or not recording, but playing on my phone.
But my point is, is it doesn't seem to matter.
The only difference now is that my heckler, my heckler, she came downstairs.
So I can control the music when I'm down here.
Whereas when I'm upstairs, if I'm playing the music and, you know,
she doesn't like the song for whatever reason,
you can hear her because it's on wide spectrum screaming in the background,
gay, or whatever the heck she would yell in the background because that's what she does.
So my point overall is that good news is when I'm doing the Wednesday spaces, I'm downstairs in a space that normally she doesn't bother me.
Although she just came down and opened up the door and then poked her head in and turned around and ran out.
That's why I was a little distracted hey we brought up uh primates what's up brother
howdy family hope everyone is well good afternoon good morning good evening um just wanted to jump
up uh say hello to everyone and um yeah just congratulate on what you guys are continuously
doing and building like continue i know it can be a bit of a hardened grind as well i know just
grind myself but yeah continue like you're fucking killing it really is uh i just want to
jump up anyway i am a holder uh i swept uh one or two a few months ago. And I'm a proud holder of bedtime. So, you know,
I'm always watching what you guys are doing. So great to see it in so many of our communities
in yours as well. So it's an awesome blend. Love to see it. Yeah, for sure, man. I appreciate you
coming up. I mean, I don't even know how long you've been around, but longer than bedtime has
So it's good to see that you're still here, right?
Like, you know, there's a lot of people that aren't here anymore.
So that's amazing right there.
It's the testament of what we all do, man.
If we had a vision to be here and start doing it, why are we not still here?
It pisses me off that founders that come and go,
that's what they're doing.
They're coming and going.
Let us build the vision and put ourselves in the places
You know, yeah, I've been around for three and a bit years.
Primates, we've been minting for over two years.
We've still got some going at the moment.
But in that time, I've maintained and continued just to build and deliver with the community.
So, you know, I'm happy where we are now.
We've got a little gaming arcade for skateboarders and stuff like that.
Yeah, it just takes a bit of time.
Like, that's the other side is everyone just appreciates some time. You don't want to race things away, but also things that mean value require time to build that value as well.
You guys keep killing it, honestly.
You and Unreal Kingdoms is just going to, oh, my God, you guys are just going to set the shit on the light and bring the real eyes that are needed here.
oh my god you guys are just gonna set the shit on the light and bring the real eyes that are needed
here yeah i'm excited for i'm excited for what's about to happen and the recognition that a lot of
people are gonna get um it's gonna be fun and you know the thing with you talk about you know the
founders that dip in and dip out they were never here to be founders anyways they were just they
came to be extractors right um most of them you know
some of them probably just failed and gave up they didn't know any better they they're dipping
their toes into something they had nothing to do with before and oh i can make this money i can
build this community they come to find out they didn't get any of that so they run away but yeah
i mean it's just good to see people that have been here a long time still here. Like I said, I've I've seen you around for like I said longer than bedtime. I know that so that's reassuring man. It is.
skateboard yeah man i totally forgot about the collection until you were in here last week man
i think you gave me a follow um but yeah i love those apes man you know i've been checking out
the collection again man appreciate brother we're we're certainly uh continuing to deliver
value amongst our holders and and our community so if you still had it you'd actually be able to
now go into our gaming arcade
stake and earn extra rewards and play out we've got four games that i've coded and created and
i've got another two that i'm about to launch and it's like i've got a whole reel of stuff that i'm
literally just doing myself and just hand picking it cool that's complete now put that there and
you know yeah organizing it out so it's decent um appreciate man yeah man i
think i think it was probably probably right when i got into nft switching over from crypto uh
yeah man i think it was like the first or second project and probably the second because i think
the first one definitely rug well i got i'd like to interject real quick that you know this is one
thing that i think that's so great about the folks that are in this room.
And, you know, when I look at who's here is that, you know, there's something that we have in common.
I can say between myself and Boardwalk and Witchy and obviously with Primates Board Club, obviously with Cyber API Club and Unroh Kingdoms is that, you is that we all know what it's like to win.
is that anyone who knows what it's like to win
knows that there's challenges along the way.
You're not like winning every day.
You win because you don't give up.
You win because you never quit.
The people that are true winners in life are the people who who they fall down you know they they try to jump a
hurdle and it knocks them down they missed it and it freaking knocks them down they tumble but they
get up and they keep running and they keep making things happen and that's what you know ultimately
that from the beginning with with with bedtime because it was a project that, you know, we're a rug rescue, you know.
And so we, you know, we've come a long way from that point.
I think anybody's been paying attention.
And when you see what's going on with Cyber Ape Yacht Club and Unreal Kingdoms and, you know, hey, it's been a long time and steam and playstation
have been you know proof for a while and you know xbox and finally coming on and you know it's it's
a never give up never quit because we have a it just doesn't matter what you achieve i mean the
people that are behind uh these projects at this point are folks that nothing is ever good enough
it's a it's a we're we're gonna keep fighting to keep you know when there's downs we always fight
we get up we put in the work and uh you know we of course we love to ride the highs everyone loves
to ride the highs but you know no one's slacking no one's slacking. No one's slacking. So I'm super excited for what's to come with projects.
And when people that are building, especially during this, I've been in many projects.
And even as a side holder, I've got projects right now that at the same time that I was getting involved with bedtime, you know, myself as a holder, as a community manager to becoming an owner.
And on the side, I'm like, OK, I bought these into these projects.
And they're like, oh, it's too bearish of a market.
We're not working too hard right now because, you know, the market's down.
So we're just going to wait.
But like folks like CyberApe Got Club and Bedtime and, you know know the projects that are involved in that partnership
they've been building and working hard this entire time it there's never been a get down there's no
there's no oh we just need to take a break for a while because we're just waiting for something to
happen no because that's time we're we're working we're building and and you know i commend all that
are here you're all cyber ape yacht club You're all Cyber Rape Yacht Club.
You're all Bedtime Creations.
You're all part of the Unruh Kingdoms.
And I can't wait for what happens here in the near future because it's going to be so much fun.
Dude, it's so funny that, you know, you say that or just waiting for something to happen.
Like, you're going to be waiting a long fucking time.
Whoever it is that's waiting.
Like, I mean, I learned this at a young age, like if there's something you want, like you
just got to go after it every day.
And eventually you got a shot at it.
I mean, obviously nothing's guaranteed.
But there is a guarantee you'll never have it if you don't go for it.
I mean, that's, that's just the bottom line.
I mean, unless you're that one in however many hundred millions that
can hit a lottery ticket and you know change your life and then you probably blow it anyways because
you didn't earn the shit you just you know you don't know what to do with it that's why they
have a whole tv series on people that won the lottery and fail right um it's crazy it's just
you can make a million bucks but you won't be able to make a living right right you wouldn't
know what to do with it you're like oh i'm gonna I'm going to go buy a house, a car, a lot of drugs. And now I'm broke.
You know, like that's, that's what seems to happen to these people. And it's, it's a shame,
you know, it really is. But yeah, that's the benefit of having vision and being able to
sustain. And you hear it about everyone in all the entrepreneurs and that, oh, he's got to be
consistent. Yeah. I get that. Actually, you actually understand consistency and the mentality of an entrepreneur
and successful entrepreneurs when you actually know what you want to deliver. If you actually
have a vision of what you want to do, those goals and that sustaining and maintaining is easy as
hell. Because if the vision is going to bring you success in five years time why the hell
are you whinging about the five months of period now of where it's quiet or some get down and build
like you it's a laugh that so many founders are we're going to wait until something happens
man it's your job you're the founder you were the one meant to be making something happen. Jesus, you know?
No, I mean, you're absolutely right.
That's one of my assessments.
I'm like, sorry, I'm not funded.
Project's not, you know, we're not minting out.
We haven't got mint funds to be doing anything.
But I tell you what, I'm just going to put my head down in code
and learn it myself then.
Like, instead of spending stupid money on something,
actually, I could learn myself.
Okay, why not learn my own new,
new skills and then tap into the community and go, Oh, actually we've got three or four 3d developers in the community. Hey, do you want to get involved? Like there's a whole nother
manner. There's a, yeah, there's a, a, there's always an, when there's a world as a way,
literally. I mean, dude, that's it. it right like when i took over bedtime you know i
rescued it from the old people like i didn't know and i didn't have a plan i just knew that like
if i could get enough of the right people together working towards something like we could figure it
out because i mean there's a million things you can do right like you're not stuck to any one idea
um you just had to have the right people around you.
And that, I mean, we proved it, right?
We weren't going to build a game.
We didn't have the funds to build a game, right?
That's not, you know, but we knew we were going to do something.
So we were going to, you know, once we started talking, we were going to go a little smaller
route and do some other things and work up to building a game at some point.
You know, that was the goal.
But then, you know, a chance encounter with co--compiler who's here up on the stage now like it changed
everything right but it's because we showed up every day we showed enthusiasm we we love our
project we we knew we were going to do something and the cards fell in place like that's i think
that's just the way you have to look at it because you could have a master plan and let me tell you
three years most likely that's going to change a little bit if not a lot because everything isn't
just a straight easy line i mean there's so many curveballs that come your way like you know people
come people go markets change you know so you have to be able to adapt and you have to be able to go
you know in a still forward in a direction no matter matter what it is. And I mean, look at us now.
I mean, it's, it's mind blowing to think where we're at. You know, I, sometimes it's like,
I say it jokingly, you pinch yourself. Right. But I mean, fuck dude, we're about to shake
the fucking world, man. Literally. Hey, code. What's up, brother? Not much, brother. I'm just
over here listening to y'all. Getting kind of excited.
You know, we heard back from Valve over at Steam today.
They only wanted us to update some little term stuff on their stuff.
So we did that and resubmitted everything in to be finalized there and ready to go.
The team's in the process of doing a full backup and exporting out everything for us with the PlayStation and Xbox build.
So that'll take seven hours from now, and then we will compile those and put those in.
And those are at least a very quick turnaround time.
And then we should be able to be live.
I think we're shooting for the first or the first week of the first for us to be able to go live.
And it's kind of exciting.
You know, we were part of a pretty cool conversation the other day about how there's never been an actual true metaverse actually built until ours,
where it allows you to have the sale of web 2 and web 3 products all in
the same ecosystem there's never been the the system that has been actually set up to develop
and be ever expanding until ours you know and us building the framework and the api for us to be
able to take other worlds and do integration and build out that's there. It's, it's kind of comical.
I see a lot of people that use the word that they have a metaverse when the
definition is so skewed because everybody goes, Oh, well,
if I have a web three product, it's a metaverse.
You know, you have a video game that accepts a Web3 payment and or you can import your PFP into it.
There's plenty of video games that have creation that's out there.
But how many of them actually allow you to actually own virtual real estate?
How many of them actually allow you to actually own virtual real estate how many of them actually allow you to sell a web 2 product how many of them allow you to actually take a shopify
store and have integration to it how many of them allow you to be able to set up your own business
and rentals and do everything you want um you know and a lot of people have looked at going into
multiple tasks into that section and most of them can can't. And then, you know, we also are the
patent holders for all the transactions for Unity, Unreal and WebGL for blockchain.
So it's going to be a little bit of a pain in the ass for a lot of people in the near future
to jump into that integration without licensing through us. You know, and this is one of the few
things that we've looked at and how to be able to go in
it and build out to where we put in the moat. And there's a lot of people got to hear from the
attorney, you know, it's, it's a very deep moat. And there's a lot of people that have a lot of
promise and a lot of, you know, that there are some companies that are in the process of actually
trying to do a metaverse and actually build it.
And you want it. Those companies are ones that I want to partner with, you know.
But then there's also a shit ton of these guys that have bullshit games and they're calling it a fucking metaverse.
And it's literally, you know, a few thousand dollar Fiverr fucking project that they just went and stripped out and said hey look this
is us and web too um and it's kind of disgusting to be in that area because it dilutes what real
builders are doing um which is the reason why you know we token gate ours and and we we sit back and
we build every day transparently in front of our community it It's the reason why we sit back and build and we
do it in front of everybody. So, you know, I don't know, you know, am I excited about what the future
is? The answer is yes. I mean, a lot of people know we've spent over $20 million in legal,
what the true legal ramifications to build out the structures and everything is in this space that has not been
asked, has not been touched. I mean, we're the guinea pigs for being live on consoles,
which is also very huge too, you know, to be out there and be the first ones that will be able to
have a process crypto transaction before October of this year on consoles is pretty amazing. And being the guinea pig and being these
ones that are working with these huge corporations, I mean, Microsoft and Sony are absolutely fucking
ginormous, but you best believe that everything has to come with a benefit for these guys too.
And so always trying to look at how do you build a true marketplace?
How do you build a true functionality?
You know, users were in there the other day building.
We had somebody actually go in
and actually use the FBX system
to put in a wall art QR code
and test it in their mall space the other day for us.
And sure as shit, it literally went
and opened up his Shopify store and allowed for him to do it. But it also had the option to where
he could also accept crypto through his Stripe payment processing. So being able to start
bridging some of these gaps and being able to start making a true integration and a true multiverse and ever expanding metaverse that is actually there, that actually is there for the build out the structure and what is going to come in the next five, six, seven, eight steps.
And, you know, a lot of people haven't filed PCTs.
And a lot of people haven't filed PCTs.
You know, that was the other thing we were kind of talking about the other day with the attorneys.
You know, the first thing that Sony's attorney said was, can we get a copy of your receipts for your PCTs?
the second thing the attorney said was is there a secondary option for us to license out for
people you know through us for crypto transactions that would be a licensing through you we would pay
you for the licensing through other people the answer to that was sure we we can work that out
you know but these are the things that we're now looking at on how to be able to build proper structure how to be able to build out for the community how to be able to take steps
from point a to point b to point c and we do this shit live we do it live in our discord so and most
people even like this morning we were on with ic3 and with lumen and guess what we stream that shit
in discord so everybody got to sit back and hear, you know, hey, yeah,
how are we going to handle the UDP functionality
and not have it to where it's a session-based game?
Okay, well, we went and we worked that out with,
which is one of the largest UDP systems in the world.
Got on the phone with Lumen and said,
hey, if we have these servers here,
is there any way that we can also set up
a cloud networking infrastructure for UDP
So that way we can lower the latency
down to less than 20 milliseconds worldwide.
So there's plenty of room in this space for growth. There's plenty
of room to be able to sit back and see what we can do. And it's like the fun challenge. And we've
had people that have metaverses. A lot of people know we had Big Time Game. We've had Illuvium,
We had Big Time Game, we've had Alluvium, CEOs, CTOs, CFOs, all inside our Discord.
We've had multiple conversations with all these different groups.
And it was funny because everybody just straight up said it was,
what separates us is we're the metaverse and they're the game that accepts and
runs crypto transactions.
And that was probably the coolest feeling that I think we've had, you know,
and we got a few people from Activision that,
that are also joining up on the team here too,
which is going to be really exciting over the next few weeks too.
They're going to be working with us with network replication and a few other pieces. So that way, the delivery when
we go out here in three weeks is astronomical and beautiful. But it takes time, you know,
a lot of pieces, so many pieces in this space right now. And there are still some amazing and
beautiful builders that are that actually still have been building since the bear.
And those people, you know, I fucking love seeing those guys out there.
You want it? I cheer them on.
And my side wallet, I own some of their stuff, you know, even though I am a competitor.
But I appreciate seeing other builders, as everybody knows.
You know, this space was about to be for builders. That's what this, you know,
web three space was, was to be able to build community, build builders,
put your efforts in and don't let anything slow you down and just keep
that's the reason why we came to you guys and said, look,
all you guys that are here, builders, quirkies,
bedtime creations, HC hogs you know we're
coming over to go and sit down with neglected labs here soon you know and many more you know
let's sit down and figure out how do we build this out you know three meta d and their group
over there with their orcs and their nation and doing different things we want builders in this
space we want people that actually want to see this grow and we want to do it
a lot of excitement for this next week.
I'd love to see where everybody gets and where it goes,
If you got a question for me,
that's okay. I, I jump in. You can interrupt me. You're fine. Yeah, that's okay.
I absolutely didn't want to interrupt you.
I wanted you to finish your thought,
take your talk to the conclusion that you wanted to go.
Yeah, so I actually have so many questions right now
because you're one of the few people
I've actually heard have a distinct
delineation between a blockchain-enabled virtual world and the metaverse, which I thought was
really, really interesting because I do that too when I'm trying to explain what the metaverse
actually is and how there's like only one metaverse. I actually, and i know that because i wrote the immersive internet scaling model paper
um and so like like when you say uh metaverse are you talking about the way that um like
matthew ball and kathy hackle and and the rest of the uh kind of like like educational metaverse influencers define it as, or are you talking
about as the community aspect inside of the crypto space?
No, no, I think mine's kind of a mesh in between a little bit of both, honestly.
A metaverse should always be ever expanding, should always be able to have inclusions and
growth and should not be stuck to one barrier um and this is where you know blockchain and
blockchain technology with with even the word of the metaverse was even designed i mean i've been
in bitcoin since bitcoin was fuck i think my first big transaction was $35,000 when Bitcoin was $0.17.
I've been in Bitcoin since then and crypto trading, doing everything.
And the scalability needs to be what we call infinite if you're actually going to build a metaverse.
needs to be what we call infinite if you're actually going to build a metaverse.
Community play, availability structure all has to have some kind of
enjoyment also, though, and factor for humanization, you know, collaboration, growth.
And it also needs to be able to have an ecosystem that can also thrive, you know, and it's the same thing.
Like we all had a conversation where,
everything that gets sold,
putting 90% of all of the,
the sales of all the products and so forth back into the world.
So that way it creates competitive market and open market and availability
and an actual true play to earn functionality and the build out of creating.
For the world and never stopping, you know, it's.
A metaverse shouldn't be just strictly set to a PC, which is the reason why we went to consoles.
It's the reason why we're going to mobile.'s the reason why we already have vr availability it's the reason why we take things five six seven eight nine steps and what
the future is going to keep growing with because a metaverse should be almost infinite and that's
what our aspect of it is i mean you go and look at world of warcraft they've been building out for
been building out for 20 plus years. Their total game file size is 1.3 terabytes.
20 plus years of building, one of the largest selling games, more zones and worlds than anybody
in the planet. And then you go and you look at what we've built and we're at 7.9 terabytes
uncompressed, you know, and fully doing multiple layers of compression systems, build out systems,
networking systems, making this to where you can have the game functionality be added, but also
being able to have transactionals, being able to have communication, being able to have
decentralization, being able to have those different growth pieces. I think that it really changes the atmosphere of what is out there because most people think
very one sided with a metaverse that if it has a Web3 integration, that it's a metaverse.
And that is the biggest mistake, I believe.
biggest mistake, I believe. Yeah, let me just kind of clear up some things. So inside of the NFT
Let me let me just kind of clear up some things.
cryptocurrency blockchain space, usually when people use the term metaverse, what they're
really talking about are blockchain-enabled virtual worlds. But on the larger scale,
enabled virtual worlds. But on the larger scale, the metaverse or the open metaverse,
depending on who you talk to, would be the ability to have multiple scaled platforms that
are completely independent from each other, co-link to each other the way that websites
link to each other. So you can be on Yahoo, click a link, and you can be over at Google.
You can click a link and you can be on the Steam page, completely independent from each
And that is exactly our vision.
And that's exactly how our system functions right now.
Have you guys had a conversation with RP1 yet?
Honestly, I'm going to be 100% with you, Eugene.
I really didn't do spaces until about a year ago
bro, I went to a dinner with Tony Robbins
hey, look, you are absolutely
fucking stupid for not screaming this at the top of your lungs. And I came home that night
and had a conversation with people in discord about it and, you know, shared the pictures.
Hey, look at this. I was at dinner and blah, blah, blah. And everybody said, yo, starting
tomorrow, we're going to start having you join X spaces and you need to be able to start to vocalize and explain to people what you're
building, why you've built it, what's going on and what your dream of having it built is and
why you want to do this and why it's so important to the web three world,
because all these other people have made all these promises and nobody's
delivered. And so you have to be the one that delivers.
You have to be the one that steps in and, you know,
ponies up and get ready for the most exhilarating,
exhausting, draining next five years of your life. And I stepped in and said, okay,
that very next day was me being invited into DigiJoints and a few other places and Wes and
a few others dragged me around for a few days too after that to get me to start talking about what
we had as a product and what we were building.
And, you know, it comes with a lot of hate, comes with a lot of people sitting back saying,
oh, well, you know, you took a jab by making cyber apes at Bored Ape Yacht Club for spending
three billion dollars in three years and didn't and didn't deliver.
And everybody who knows knows I'm a very, very large Bored Ape holder and hold some very
a very, very large Bored Ape holder
and holds some very rare Bored Apes.
I've been invested in many, many, many, many, many projects
and been burned and burned and burned and burned
like so many others that are in here.
And nobody is willing to openly develop in front of everybody.
And so we said, you want to fuck it.
If we're going to be developers like we are and like I am,
then we're going to openly develop like we are and like i am then we're going to openly
develop this in open space in our discord we'll token gate it just that way we don't have to deal
with every schmo and that that thinks that they understand fucking tokenomics and building in
games and everything but we will make it to where everybody that's in our ecosystem has the ability
to get involved see what we're doing build with with what we're building. And honestly, it was, fuck it, I got 30 million in the bank, so I'll fund it until I can't fund it
anymore. And we stepped up and took it to that realm. But you're right, the metaverse was supposed
to be to where it has its own individualized connectivity. And just the same way like bedtimes system is yes it's compiled in ours
but it doesn't need to be compiled in ours it can be its own standalone but it is connected
directly with ours through a simple portal you go over and you click in bang and you're there
and it is a completely separate server it's a completely separate device availability that's there. It runs on separate ports. It runs. But the API that handles
it all just the same as the blockchain is actually in the same structure as the blockchain to be able
to also move that information from point A to point B to point C. So that way the user's files,
beat a point C. So that way the users files their economy, their items, everything moves with them.
And so we took it through all of those steps to be able to sit back and to make this to where
it's at now. And it's gone through every nightmare in the world because for instance, there's nobody that understands true blockchain technologies over at,
We have to pay for them to have a software development legal attorney be
able that understands blockchain,
be able to go through our stuff and it's cost us an arm and a leg.
attorney meetings live with everybody. I mean, there's nothing that we hide. Like I said,
half these people that are in here probably know my credit card number legitimately.
Because, you know, at that same point, everything we do is live. I mean, we went and opened up even
our development server. Our development server for what we're building costs us 112 000 a month and we opened that up and shared that to everybody here
here's the video we booted it up in the middle of the live space here you go you guys want to see
what it costs for us just to have our devs compile this for playstation xbox and pc this is what it's
been costing us every month so and let me ask you uh who is your c meta o
who's my c meta o yeah um probably my partner mark would be your your best one with that and
he was the chief technology officer for Ernst and young and partner with
I would be interested in,
I'm sure you probably will.
Cause most people here in the next few weeks will probably be caking into
And I'm probably going to guess you, you will probably probably too when you start to see what's going on.
And yeah, Mark stays in Discord probably 18 to 20 hours a day, seven days a week.
Actually, he will be in Dubai.
I should say I need to correct that.
The 21st through the 1st for their big, huge crypto event that they're holding there.
It's like crypto 2024 or something like that in Dubai.
And then he's invited to a couple of private parties.
But yeah, I mean, he's probably when it comes to understanding tokenomics, understanding blockchain technology, transaction systems. or sorry, John Radoff, who wrote a paper called The Seven Layers of the Metaverse, where it
basically shows all the infrastructure that you would need to run the metaverse when we
eventually get to the third generation of the internet, which I like to say we're at least
five years, probably 2030. we'll have enough mass adoption
of these third generation web technologies
to go from web two to web three.
And what we're currently experiencing right now
is just like the bleeding edge of these technologies.
But you're talking about the experience layer,
discovery layer, creators, spatial, decentralization, human interface, and infrastructural layers.
Those have all been already predetermined.
Those were last year's availability.
But the issue is, is most people look at spatial computing.
For instance, spatial came out.
What's the max number of users you can have in spatial, Eugene?
I have no idea off the top of my head 150 or 500 that's it limited 500 how is that a metaverse it's it's not right yeah so
how many people can go in unreal kingdoms i'm gonna ask prime this well i would i would argue unlimited use the
internet anyone that's going to use the internet because it'll be scalable right so that that's
right so creating the experience layer allowing people to be able to have those games those
availability the the structuring the dynamics the chat build, the being able to have actual web ownership
to be able to decide whether or not you want to use it for a guild. You want to use it as a mall.
You want to use it as your fucking hangout spot. You want to use it to where you just want to go
and put up your own Netflix and watch your own fucking midget porn. You could.
The creator economy availability where we also will allow other creators to be able to come in, have their growth,
but also at the same point in time,
giving the users the ability
to also be creators into the system,
how to build their own FBXs,
how to be able to go and take
from point A to point B to point C
and being able to have their own customization
of characters and actually working
with two other FBbx ai groups right
now that we're in the process to where people will be able to dynamically create their own characters
full decentralization by being able to own one we own our own exchange a full centralized exchange
and which case that is up and available and has been running for years where
all the transaction systems run through that uh and full user human interface is already well i mean that was part of the structure build
and then the infrastructure layer which was built based off of a tokenomics system that was built
by the guy who handled the largest accounting software build out for the largest accounting company in the world, which is Ernst and Young EY.
You know, kind of speaks.
What's your current, current like scale for um what are these virtual environments on your platform
uh so we are running like base environment right now is 5 000 by 5 000 meters
which means that our one base is equivalent our space station is the equivalent of all of sandbox.
Our original meeting point is bigger than all of the central and sandbox and big time game and TCG world all combined.
Yeah, I don't like to count those those places as part of the metaverse i i wouldn't
either but it's a gaming scale that people can reference to sure um so i did do a demo
of rp1 probably six months ago and their virtual environment is uh and they should you should be able to demo their stuff pretty soon probably
like the next month uh their uh virtual space is the size of the planet
yeah ours ours has got even a whole universe it's pretty cool
Like an actual full space universe and buildable planets and functional.
I can't wait to see it, man.
It's going to be pretty exciting.
Xbox is already a good idea.
I'm just kidding. Code compilers actually crack the code because no matter how many so-called metaverses get built, unless they all connect and work in one way or one another, which effectively is using the blockchain and then using portals, it will always stay a single metaverse until every single metaverse becomes connectivity.
until every single metaverse becomes connectivity.
So unfortunately, code compilers had to go this level
to show to PlayStation, Xbox, and every console
what they're actually missing out on
and seeing the true benefit of it.
And then being able to go,
hey, it can also be hosted on the blockchain
and be true transparent ownership on the blockchain
without any holdbacks and then like yeah um
there's had to be a lot of unlockings and in the coming years i'm sure due to the work that
co-compiler has done um everyone will be thanking him for doing this hard yarn of actually instead of just making a metaverse and hoping everyone
else can somehow connect actually making sure there's a standard so every single metaverse can
it can come to that standard and go cool we can all connect and you're right i mean you have to
look at like everything it is you know i i very well understand the seven layers of a metaverse structure.
You know, the games, the esports, the theater, the shopping.
Everybody knows we have the esports.
We're partnered with Atlas World Sports, which is also the largest sport betting aggregate in the world.
We have all the gamification.
Ad networks, which was, you know, 50 on red, being able to host these Twitter spaces and so forth inside the metaverse where you can then share that with other people, your group, your guild, whatever you want. You know, us being able to have build tools where users are able to now build, have their functionality, you know, which is the economy creation and so forth that's there you know spatial computing everybody knows that we already have 3d engines we already have tested the ar vr and xr availability which we do have to fix like
some things like inertia and a few other things because when you're on a dragon and you're flying
and you smack a tree you can do what i did almost and smacked my face on the desk it's a real thing
um yeah when you have a tree branch coming at your face and it's you're using, you know, a lot of people know that when we turn up all the graphics, it is very realistic.
I mean, you can see the pollen on the flowers as we go through it.
You know, edge computing with decentralization availability, we've already been in.
You know, we've been doing that forever.
You know, microservices, being able to do micro agents.
Everybody knows that we have over, now we're
over 40 different AI systems that are actually built into our platform right now. And then going
into human interface availability for that growth, being able to have mobile, being able to get those
guys that are like in the Philippines and everybody in wearables, being able to also be able to answer
messages and so forth, also through our mobile app functionalities.
And then it'll go into infrastructure. Yes, we are already on cloud networks. Yes, we already are on many different CDN networks.
We're on multiple different pieces that are there. And we built this infrastructure out for the understanding that you have to be able to have ever expanding growth.
So how do we do that? And you can't just go and say,
okay, I'm gonna go over to OVH and that's good enough.
No, you have to have multiple networks
and multiple backup networks
and infrastructural networks
to be able to carry these types of loads
because ours is a true replicated multiverse metaverse,
which means if there's 10 million people in one area,
all 10 million people need to be able to interact
and be able to move and justify and adjust
if you actually build this out fully and completely.
It's the same thing with Elden Ring.
made $14 billion in a year.
But the reason why it almost completely and utterly
fell off was guess what had no user interaction for being able to have people play with each other,
be able to function with each other group, any of the other pieces that are there, you look at
groups like Alluvium, you know, if it wasn't for big groups, like immutable that have 5.8 million
already crypto users that came in and said, yes, guess what?
We can get all these people in it. And they, these are all the game lovers already in crypto
that can go over here and purchase your marketplace items. You know, how, how much
further would some of these corporations be? You know, most of these guys are still paying off
debts to the investors where guess what?
We don't have that issue.
I don't have to ask for somebody's permission.
I put the $30 million up out of my own fucking pocket.
And if any of our NFTs sell, okay, great.
That just helps put a bandaid on me going to the bank to pay the devs this week.
Other than that, we stay building.
We stay with our heads down and it takes a lot of work.
because we're not going to stop on the growth.
We're actually in the process.
We're going to be building out a full dev center
where we're going to have live-in devs
for the full creation of what we're building out.
It takes a whole fucking community of people.
And honestly, I think i have a better community
than board ape and pudgies together you know honestly because mine mine mine are here mine
see they know they're educated and they understand it and will it be something that is always going
to be developed yes but it's hard to develop on things that haven't even gotten approvals by some of these consoles yet because they haven't even caught up to it yet.
So we are the guinea pig. We're the ones that are going through everything.
We're the ones laying the ground. We're the ones laying the foundation.
And in the meantime, yes. Am I patenting the absolute living shit out of everything?
The answer is yes. You want to know why? Because that creates survivability of what we're doing. So that way in the future, we can stay building and we can
stay building out and we don't have to worry about how much we're selling in the game. We can just
keep building because you want to know what? I have no problem on going and licensing this out
to the next 10 other projects that are going to try to get into this space and build it out.
And we're going to be still bringing in a big enough income to keep growing out ours and making
it bigger and bigger and bigger yeah what he said dude if i was if i was in the men i swear to god bro i'd be all i'd be at your
front doorstep right now that's all i gotta say i was just waiting we just need to hear from west
what's going on with west yo i'm just over here with it just over here bricked up baby let's go
let's go yo having a good time listening in.
Shout out to my boy, Code Dude, doing what nobody else has done before, man.
And just hanging out, man.
Here to support, here to show love, and here to be with the family as always, man.
Hope you're all having a wonderful evening.
Shout out to Unreal Kingdom.
Shout out to all the partners and everyone else who's here, man, rocking with us, brother, for sure. Proud moments always in this space with my friend Code.
Dude, we got some schooling tonight. I think that, you know, Code, thank you.
Dude, thank you so much for being here tonight and the education that you provided.
and the education that you provided,
things that I'm sure many of us didn't know.
And, dude, I'm grateful to have learned the things that you brought tonight.
Yeah, and Eugene for asking the questions, baby.
Dude, that's the amazing part.
This space is only the second of its kind.
Bedtime doesn't normally do a Wednesday space.
Last week we did a pop-up.
Dummy No Joby was like, you know what?
Hey, maybe we should do a space because, you know,
I don't have any reason not to do a space for bedtime
because this is an off night for the Unreal Kingdoms,
the Cyber Ape Yacht Club family, typically.
Let's start doing a space on Wednesday.
And tonight has been, this has been epic.
If you don't like and retweet this space, you need to do so.
But the thing is, it's recorded.
So think about the fact that all the things that were said tonight by everyone that was
said so far, it's been amazing.
People can listen to this who weren't here tonight.
So you want to make sure you share it so they can see it
and they can see like, look, maybe I should listen to it.
If you just joined in late so far, it's been a great space.
Code Dude, thank you so much for all the knowledge that you shared tonight.
Eugene, thank you for coming for all the knowledge that you shared tonight eugene thank you for coming
tonight and asking the questions i was not expecting a eugene tonight um i i was i was
ready to uh jump in the bed and it's it's actually beautiful to see that there are other people that
really understand and care about what the metaverse and metaverse structures will be for the future
there's not a lot of people that understand it.
There's not a lot of, I mean, it's a very, very, uh, niche circuit world out here.
And, uh, I was not expecting to, uh, to get asked a few of those questions.
Uh, I'm going to be honest with you.
You were the first one to catch me off guard.
And, uh, to be fair, this you were the first one to catch me off guard and uh to be fair
this is kind of my job uh i serve as the uh uh global xr education advisor for the xrsi which
is a principal advisor to the metaverse standards forum and the united nations
that's awesome and uh feed spot this past year rated me as like the number 11th metaverse expert
in the world well we're building eugene we're building bro yeah so this is literally my area
of expertise hey you know i'm gonna be honest with you it was you know most people i couldn't go and explain i mean like i i've i can explain what we're doing and you know a lot of people understand that yes we have the games
the the social the esports the theater the shopping a lot of people understand okay well
we're adding the ad network social social curiosations we have all the rating systems
for child blocking everything you know being able to do design tools where
everybody's like, cool, we get to build out on our stuff and do what we want and commerce.
But you don't get to go and explain the seven layers to normally almost anybody, which is
really difficult because a lot of people wouldn't expect to understand what those seven layers are.
If I just straight up said to this group, you know, we've we've gone in and accomplished
everything that is required for the seven layers and what we're going into and you know we were
actually talking about this the other day about the the neural link and how i can't wait until
it comes out because i want to be the first person to go and get it and fucking get it integrated
for unreal kingdoms and everybody was like my wife's like are you fucking serious and i was
like bitch i'm gonna live on the blockchain for life and nobody will ever ever ever be able to get rid of
me it's so it's so funny that you mentioned things like uh you know bci or brain computer interfaces
because it's technically web 4 and we talk so rarely about that generation of technologies
that are coming down the pipeline.
All right. And yo, don't forget to mention the patents for web four, five, and six.
And we're going to be, you know, yeah, we've had our head down and we were quiet for two years, quietly building.
We, we, we are builders in this space and we're going to stay being builders in this space. And we're going to be, you know, yeah, we've had our head down and we were quiet for two years,
And, you know, everybody that's in here, you know, there are so many people like Brother West and so many others that were like, nah, fuck that.
We are dragging you out here.
Like, I don't care if it's kicking and screaming, but you have to come out and tell people.
I was very much a very quiet, introverted person that, you know, stayed in my own lane.
And I was very much a very quiet, introverted person that, you know, stayed in my own lane. And I was a builder.
It wasn't until I got to really, you know, get to see my Web3 family and how they came out.
I mean, I was, you know, and I even loved the challenge of people sitting back and saying,
Well, you want to know it?
Fuck you. I'm't get it done. Oh, really? Well, you want to know it? Fuck you.
I'm going to do it. And if it means that it's going to cost me an extra $5 million,
just so that way I can say, ha, bitch, I proved you wrong. I'm going to be that guy.
And then the worst part about it is, is the few people that I was going to get to say it to before we finished everything. And they got to see that we were crossing those finish lines,
came up to me and we're like, damn dude, you're fucking killing it. You know, I'm,
I'm proud of you. Like, I didn't think you could get it done and you you're getting the shit done
and you don't know how fucking bad and how good it feels all at the same time. You know,
cause you wanted, I definitely wanted to be the guy to sit back and say, you want to know it?
Fuck you. I did it. Look at me, you want to know it? Fuck you.
You want to know what you doubted?
You know, we work seven days a week, 20 hours a day.
We have development going on, live streamed in our servers every day.
And we've been that way for three years.
And I've eaten, well it well 97 of the cost we've we've had a lot of people that have come in the last few months and have definitely stepped up and helped a lot but i've eaten 97
of the cost to be able to build this and when things are tough if i don't have a paycheck
that's going to clear for a few days but we still have some bills that need to be covered, I have the best fucking community in the world.
Because the level of transparency we have and communication we have is just raw honesty.
We're all like family in there.
I have no problem on being like, hey, Boardwalk, you're a dick.
And I love you you know and then west you should never ride a motorcycle ever
a again even if it has training wheels and these are all things that you want that i can say because
they're my family now i i've i've built those relationships to where all these so many people
are my family now because i spend more time with them than actually my family.
And that's the reality of it. And we're not slowing down.
We're only going to get bigger.
We're only looking to keep expanding on this.
And our goal of this is to create not just generational wealth, but to actually be able
to build, to change things into the future for the better, to be able to, you know,
I have personal goals after we get done with building the dev center and we're,
we're getting an Island and there's a strategic reason for the Island,
but we're getting an Island Island that has its own sovereignty for a reason.
And those that know, no. But then after that,
is like buying up all these bank
foreclosure hotels and shit like that and starting doing veteran rehabilitation doing different you
know changing the lives of people and moving into how to create growth and everybody will tell you in my discord. Yes, we have sold one point four million dollars in NFTs to date.
And I've given away in my discord over three million dollars of my own money because during the holidays we have people that go through shit. We have families, you know, during, you know, hurricanes, we, we've moved and
put people on Airbnbs, people that were part of natural disasters. We've had families that have
homes that have burnt up and, and we've went and helped with the cut recovery aspects of it.
We do huge things for the, you know, different kids and foster care, homeless shelters, you name
it. But we don't do that because we want recognition.
We do that shit because that's what we should be doing as a community.
If we're fortunate enough to be able to spend money in Web3,
we should be able to come off of a little bit of something to help others
to be able to grow and to be able to protect the future
of what we're going to be doing.
And I still see that growth and the whole entire determination
of what I'm trying to get done in the next two
years. And then everything should be in place for us to have consistent growth and keep breaking.
You know, I have a very simple rule is it's OK to fail as long as you don't give up.
I have a very simple rule.
It's only impossible if you believe it's impossible, you know, and so therefore it's not impossible.
It's not if it's when, you know, you may not get it right now, but when you do get it, will it change something?
Absolutely. And the mindset and the desire of what you want to do and how you're going to end up pushing this out for the rest of the world is something that you have to
make that that internal decision you got to be willing to sacrifice and you got to be willing
to suffer you got to be able to take the ass with them when you it's time for you to take the ass
with them you know i've made mistakes and i and you want to i've even openly come out my my discord
say look guys i fucked up I bought all these servers.
They were the wrong fucking servers.
I shot through six fucking grand.
There's other times where I'm a human too.
I tell everybody I have good days and I have bad days.
There are some days that I wake up and I'm just like, nope, fuck this.
But that's the thing about being in a community where everything is
transparent and you have that open communication, you have that open availability and you can build
with each other and you can be a human still. Um, and I think that that's the reason, like I said,
why I believe we have one of the best communities for what's going to keep getting built out in
web three, because we don't have people that pussify about their feelings we don't have people that are going to sit i mean wes comes in and
there are nights where wes is fucking shit face drunk and he's like you want to
fuck this then it's like okay wes tell us all about it you know come on dump it all out real
quick no you code you want it yeah let's go baby what the fuck let me cottle daddy's tit real quick
and yeah you know give me those little tears so i can bottle them up you little bitch like
we we can have that kind of conversation we but that's that's the thing about being human and
being able to be raw and being able to have that level of transparency and we brought that in with
our community to have that you know there. And we brought that in with our community to have that.
There are times that people are struggling
and everybody will tell you,
if I have the extra money and I see somebody struggling,
I'm like, hey, what's your ETH address?
And then bang, we've bought cars for people.
We've paid for fucking housing.
We've moved people, you name you name it it's been done but we don't we're not here
to build for a bag you know i'm not here to build for a bag i should say you know i own one of the
largest big data companies in the world and if i i didn't need to do this in web3 to live comfortably
i didn't i didn't need to ever work again actually before i decided to
take this fucking project on um bro and i want to say if i say real quick code i'm an example of it
like he mentioned eugene earlier and the rest of you guys know he said don't ever ride a motorcycle
again because i did get in a harley accident last july and i spent months uh learning how to walk
again and like getting out of bed.
And my mom was here staying with me
in my apartment for three months.
And yo, she like, we were short.
Like funds were coming through,
like shot me a thousand bucks.
Like I paid for like my groceries
and like for her to take care of me
until like funds came through.
like my mom now, she's always like how's
code doing what's code up to because i spent those three months like in bed with these motherfuckers
like live in space they're live in discord and like dude they pretty much nursed me back to
health bro and like my mom's always like checking in on code and like the family and and the rest
of the community like yo what are they up to like how are they doing how's the game coming like
what's going on over there with the cake she says ape she's like what the what are the apes doing
what are you guys doing over there yeah and it's really special man and like i will say like he's
not just fucking blowing shit like you know what i mean out of his out of his fucking horn bro like
this is a man that like helped me and my mom's like get back to and become whole again and uh
i'll never forget him for it you know
what i mean and there have been times i've been up and like i've done the same i've made like
hefty donations and i've done really great things for this community and for the space and uh you
know it goes both it goes both ways right like whenever one of us is down we lift the other one
up and and vice versa man so i do want, that's my personal story. And, uh,
and everything that code is saying is fucking true. You know what I mean? And that's exactly
why I'm still here with these guys every single day. Um, I do get to watch them build live. I do
get to hang out with them every day. I do know their, their kids, their, their families. I've
met them live at conferences and events and, and, uh, and these people mean the world to me, man.
at events and and uh and these people mean the world to me man and uh and i know i mean the
world to them too so like it's it's more than than a build it's more um than the future it's
what's here now and and what we have is very special and i hold dear to my heart man so
love these guys and i'm gonna be quiet now but uh no you're good you know us it's like i tell
everybody and everybody will absolutely back this up i mean when we go to Vegas, if I'm eating steak, everyone else is eating steak, you know, and the thing is, is you, you, you build for your flock, you build with each other, you choose to either think about doing it selflessly and build with the understanding of being selfless
the whole entire time. And, you know, I looked at my wife and she knew how irritated I was because,
you know, I got fucked out of a pretty big deal. And a lot of people who know the whole backstory
knows that I kind of really got fucked on one of the largest, you know, NFT projects and a deal. And, and in that deal, you know,
are you going to sit back and fucking whine and mope?
Are you going to be upset? Are you going to let that stop you? Oh, you know,
and it turned into you want to know, no, I'm not. Matter of fact,
I'm going to build it bigger. I'm going to build it faster.
I'm going to build it stronger.
I'm going to do what nobody else has done in the space. I'm going to push it five,
six, seven, eight, nine different evolutions further than what anybody else is doing.
And we're going to stay moving in that direction. And it's difficult to wake up every fucking day
when you're used to having, you know, and I can tell you this, you know, I worked my ass off to
get to where I was. You know, I, I wasn't a trust fund kid. I, you know, and I can tell you this, you know, I worked my ass off to get to where I was. You know, I wasn't a trust fund kid.
I, you know, anybody who knows me knows that, hey, guess what?
Like, I can be honest with you.
I won my first million gambling, you know, and that was the truth.
I won a blackjack tournament for a hundred grand.
The fucking casino fucking manager was like, oh, yeah, you want to risk it all or all
or nothing on a blackjack hand? Yeah. Yeah, I do. Actually, yes. This tournament cost me 200 bucks
and I drank more than the $200 for it. So yeah, sure. Then I got a blackjack.
Joke's on you, dude. Hey, now I got 250,000. I said, so you're going to let me do that,
you know, risk it all again. And he made a phone call and he said, yeah, you can do it. Okay.
I risked it all again and ended up beating the dealer with a 20.
I said, well, shit, there's, there's a half a million.
The guy laughed and I said, so do I get best out of three?
He got back on the phone real quick.
He says, yeah, you can get up to one more.
I said, damn, I wish we had a fourth.
But ended up going and we partied you know i'm i'm definitely going to tell you um yes the the first million is very easy to lose um very very easy when you first
get it because people are like oh my god and then you're like oh my god and then you're like i can
go get a new car today and i can go do this and I can go do that. And then next thing you know, it goes down real quick.
Real quick. I mean, yeah, Wes knows he did it.
Yeah, I did it. Thanks to Cole got me to gambling, bro. Made a couple of big bags and they were gone
so quick. So quick. And then I learned about getting into things that, you know,
And then I learned about getting into things that, you know, were consistent to pay me to return that investment that I could go and make 50% on up in the U S uh, I'm, I'm probably going to be
right back and then never happened to work again because I bought Doge at like seven zeros for
like, I think I put 2,500, 2,000 and 2,500 into that. And it's going to be like another 7 million,
8 million. But as my wife said, well, as soon as that happens, we already know it's going to be like another 7 million, 8 million. But as my wife said, well, as soon as that happens,
we already know it's going into unreal kingdoms and she's probably right.
I mean, I can keep it a hundred.
Everybody who knows me knows that I don't run.
I don't run from the problems.
Matter of fact, if there's a problem and a hurdle, how do we resolve it?
How do we get it bigger, better, faster, and stronger? How do you go into building out an ecosystem that
is going to be forever growing? You can't be short-minded. You really can't. And I wouldn't
suggest anybody attempt to do this with less than a hundred million, to be honest with you.
anybody attempt to do this with less than 100 million to be honest with you um you know that
that's the reality of it uh i i could tell you you will start to live at a stress level
when when you're in 30 million um yeah that's the thing co like you're on your seventh eighth
blackjack hand like building out what you're building just like you but you know like you you put all your money on yourself you bet on
yourself and like that's why we're still here and like because we know you're willing to to do that
you know what i mean we know you're not going to get away from the table you're going to fucking
take that next hand and you're going to continue to bet on yourself and you know you're going to
continue to win and and we believe that man and we know that and we've seen that you know what i mean and that's that's really why we haven't gone anywhere you know what i mean because you're going to continue to win. And we believe that, man, and we know that, and we've seen that. You know what I mean?
And that's really why we haven't gone anywhere.
Because you're the right man at the table to play that hand.
You know what I'm saying?
And we're not going anywhere.
We're not leaving the casino without you, bro.
Well, it's simple rules, brother.
I mean, it's like the greatest saying is,
is if you're the smartest man in the room, you shouldn't be in the room.
Me, I honestly believe that I'm fortunate because I get to learn every day from so many people that are in my discord, in my different space, what they go through, what their life consists of and the different things that are there.
And I honestly, like a lot of people know, I listen to audio books.
I'll put an earbud in and be in an audiobook
while i'm working while i'm doing shit throughout the day um learning everything insurance taxes
fucking you name it investments uh you know corporation building and yeah you name it i'm
i'm just now doing a corporation one.
And so that's the only reason I just started it this morning. Um,
you know, and business infrastructure, you name it. Uh, you,
you have to always be enriching the brain and you always have to be able to
find something that creates quality in your life.
And you also have to be able to take risk on
things that you believe in. So many people have jumped in to wail in behind somebody else
just because they see it on crypto Twitter. And there are so many times I've said it over and over and over and everybody will tell you
I've preached it for the last two years you know if you see something on crypto twitter
you're already the exit liquidity you know and people should understand that you know if
you get in and you see something it is you know, oh, well, check this contract out.
Look, if some person on Twitter has that contract address and it isn't the original founder putting it out, you're the exit liquidity.
You know, and these are the things that I always try to explain to people.
You have to start looking at how you want to build your life.
And that's part of the reason why, you know, we are doing educational pieces, why we have so many different things, you know, Matt Ritchie's stuff, teaching
people about crypto trading and, and all the other additional pieces and how to, you know,
understand the lines, being able to build and teaching this kind of education inside the
metaverse too, because if I can teach kids this before most of them even know how to balance
a fucking checkbook, there'll be light years ahead, especially since most of the high schoolers
don't even know how to fucking write a check, which is astronomical to me. Um, you know,
I asked one of these kids the other day to, uh, get me a money order. And he looked at me
like I had two heads. He didn't know what it was.
And he was like, you mean I just can't cash off you? No, I need you to give me a money order
or a certified bank check. Well, what's a money order? And this is what, you know,
why you need to start creating educational pieces, why you need to start to be able to put all these pieces in there to teach people. And you have to create an infrastructure
that is also friendly to all ages. You have to be able to, which is part of the reason why,
you know, we're building out for being able to have child protections and so forth in there,
not just for your child, but also for the adults. Cause some of these little bastards are toxic as fuck i know i have kids that play call of duty um if one of them comes talking some shit to me i'm gonna be like
bro i'm fucking your mom tonight like you know like leave me alone um
but i'm also a big time gamer i've been you, you know, uh, in, in the gaming my whole life,
you know, and that was the thing. I mean,
but I also want better for the world and I want better to be able. And if it means that I have
to be the one that has to step up and teach it on top of it, you know, we got three meta
who's literally going to be teaching people how to build games and putting full
applications inside Unreal Kingdoms that teaches people how to build games. So guess what? They
might be the next game creator that is releasing on Unreal Kingdoms. And that's what I want.
This is what we've been asking for, is to be able to create a true metaverse and a space that that
allows for creation and learning and it's not often understood you know a lot of people just
hear the hype and the hype fuck the hype is drowning you know i go and i look at the spaces
right now and it's like let's fucking grow look at the central land look at metaverse look at oh they're building out the the largest
metaverse which is not even the you know the the topic and but it drags in people and people get
excited over over the wrong things and it's easy for them to get entertained because people pay
for all these kols and everybody knows i i don't fucking pay for all these KOLs and
everybody knows I don't fucking pay for any of that. You know,
I let my work do it. It's speaking. I let my transparency do it.
Speaking. I let my community do the speaking,
but every now and then, you know,
I really enjoy coming into these spaces and getting to hear the hype,
getting to see the people that have been here dreaming and building and putting
all the pieces together. And, you know,
it's the same thing that I explained to them, every single one of them.
I don't think people quite understand just how powerful education inside of
virtual worlds actually is specifically XR. And this is probably one of my favorite facts
in the whole world I want to share with you guys. Back in the 70s, a guy named John O'Keefe
found out that in your hippocampus, that's for anybody who took biology in high school,
that's the section of your brain that turns short-term memory into long-term memory. And these GPS cells are your evolutionary response to being able to find your
way back home at the end of the day. So whatever your ancestral dwelling was, whether it was your
long house or cave or igloo, whatever. But a while back, I think it was like UCLA,
But a while back, I think it was like UCLA, they ran this test of virtual environments versus real environments on mice, where they put like a mouse on a little ball and they put a bunch of virtual screens around them.
And it was an identical pathway for like the maze that they had to find their way through.
for like the maze that they had find their way through.
And what happened was those GPS cells
fire off more frequently and randomly.
So data suggests, or at least the early studies did,
that your memory retention inside of VR
That is actually correct.
Yeah, newer studies suggest it might be as high as 200 under certain conditions.
Right. Yeah. Which is actually, so the cool thing is, is in VR, your brain can actually get to almost a REM state for understanding and creativity, but it takes on average four to seven minutes for it to activate.
And, you know, so there's lots of things. Like I said, we've, when people really want to know how
much we've done in the choice of evolution of building out in this metaverse and the testings that we've done you know that
there's there's been a lot and you know that what you had said is actually very very true
the the comprehension level of um children from the ages of 5 to 17 that take in
visual audios that are closed, like that when you close circuit,
I guess you could say that the visual audio to a kid,
it increases their learning availability by almost 200% on a test of,
I think it was like 8,000 kids. So, you know, being able to go and put these
learning environments, teaching environments and everything in, in a VR where they're hearing
everything, you're, you're closing off all the other senses for them, except their sense of
smell and their sense of taste. But you're, you're closing out to where they don't have anything else that's interrupting them,
that their retention levels are literally 200% more than the kid that's doing it on a TV
and has all the other chaos and commotion and everything else around them.
And, you know, it's part of the brain stimulation that, that you want to do. And that's part of like,
why, like I said, with VR, the only reason why we're not launching VR right now is actually a
lot of legal reasons because of the additional insurances and shit that they want us to have,
um, for seizure protection and so forth, which is crazy because you'd think that your EULAs and
your TOS would be able to cover it, but that doesn't stop people from suing you regardless. So, you know, there's a lot of
things like levels of inertia that are acceptable levels and so forth too, that you have to
go in and scale and maintain and update. But damn damn Eugene, it's crazy that you, you probably,
I will, I would have to agree you're, you're right in that top 11%. I would definitely say,
um, that understand the metaverse and the understanding of pretty much why I'm building what I'm building. Yeah, dude, I left my job as a creative director at a YouTube consulting agency in 2014
to pursue the metaverse. So I have a bachelor's degree in social media innovation, and that's
literally the study of the evolution of the internet and how
emerging technologies affect people, communities, and governments. And so when I first kind of had
my first dose of VR, it was in 2014, none of the headsets had come out yet. And I was co-running After Effects Seattle at the Adobe
campus in Fremont here in Seattle. And it was like, we were doing like an after party. And this
designer from Microsoft brought in this super early prototype. And I remember like,
he had a Google Cardboard, and he slid his phone in and I put it up to my prototype. And I remember like he had a Google cardboard and he slid his phone in and I
put it up to my face and it was this like very early rendition that he was building of the
Disney's iron giant walking over. It picks you up and then he like walks with you in his hand.
And it was like on texture. There were birds in it, but you know, they weren't
like flapping. They were just kind of on a spline pathway and this sort of thing. And I just took it
off. I went, all right, this is the future. This is the moment where everything changes.
And then I saved up for three months. I moved into my parents' attic to pursue it full-time, and it has been the best decision I've ever made in
my life. And it's been a decade now where I've just been doing nothing but studying, educating.
And actually, this is kind of a side tangent. When I first started getting gigs speaking,
When I first started getting like gig speaking, I had to build like a lot of presentations.
And for whatever reason, I could not find great VR photos of people to like go into the
presentations. And so I got with an ex-girlfriend. We did a photo shoot of me and a VR headset that's
like purposely bad. And so it's like me washing dishes and riding a bike
and, and doing like spelling and drying cats on, on walls, just like ridiculous shit.
And I put it up on Pexels, uh, just so I had this available stock, uh, photos of like people in VR
headsets and they got, they kind of went viral to the point where
the Pexel account now has like 20 million impressions, but, uh, companies like Vice,
Yahoo Finance, Red Bull, et cetera, started using my face, uh, in this, like in these VR headsets
as part of their marketing and promotional materials to the point where
about 50 to 100,000 different news articles, publications, videos, websites, etc. have now
used my face as like the face of whatever their VR product is. So just as like a close estimation, I probably had a hundred million impressions of my
face as a representation of the VR industry. Jesus. Well, I mean,
the the tough question and i'm gonna have to ask it are you still in your parents attic
no no i'm i'm married i have a wife i own a house i have a kid
you know long long way uh so like i volunteer at the xrsi and then i have a
contract at coin games as a designer working on a Web3 trading card game, essentially.
And then since I just moved back to the US, I was living in China.
Now I'm on the hunt for whatever my next role or gig is.
Well, keep your eyes on Unreal Kingdoms.
Shall do. I'll take a look at your, uh,
I assume you have a like a job board or something, right?
No, not yet. We will be, um, very soon.
I'm pretty sure that, uh, after we go through our beta here,
we will have probably one of the largest job boards, but I have a lot of people
that, you know, there's so much talent in this world, but I want people that can understand
to think always outside the box.
And I want the person that, you know, has drive and has ambition to do better and to
take over and to be a leader and who understands sacrifice
because we are going to be building one of the biggest systems in the world and it takes
every bit of what we're doing i mean like i got asked for us to build pods because there's a team of like 22 guys that are in the philippines
that works for the philippines division for activision and they're all senior developers for
unreal engine and they're like hey for 450 a month plus a food stipend and you to set up sleep in pods.
We're all single and we'll work at the dev center.
So it's kind of bit my interest a little bit too.
we will be looking to expand here in the next couple of weeks.
We will be setting up a job section.
Well, if you have something that sounds like a good fit, you know, send it my way.
I'd be more than happy to take a look at the conversation.
I'd love to be able to get in game with you one day or get you in discord with me one day and go through and kind of give you the full scope of what
we're doing. And I think you're going to be like, Holy fuck.
we got something for just about everybody to see
that we, we got something for just about everybody to see.
and when it actually happens
are you going to be at AWE Quelt your thirst.
Are you going to be at AWE or NFT NYC?
We did our original debut with Quirkies.
We're thinking about setting up an actual booth this year. It's just I've spent so much money this last couple months
to be able to get this fully launched and released.
So just depending on where everything goes in the next few weeks,
we'll determine whether or not we open up our own space
or if we wait until Art Basel.
And then I will probably take over the Macy's building again do like another big 50 cent
party and again because we've already done it once and then do a big huge rollout for our season two
of unreal kingdoms and uh what we're going to be pushing out.
Dude, that sounds amazing.
Well, if you end up there,
I applied to be a speaker there again.
I spoke there in 2022 about what the actual phrasing of the metaverse means
and how most people in our community use it incorrectly.
But when I try to say that to anybody who does not have your education you should see how fast people try to you know revoke what what
i'm saying to them and and you know it's not me talking shit it really isn't it's me being straightforward and trying to teach people look
like there's an expectation of what a metaverse is and if it doesn't hit these same similar points
you know and actually be forever growing then it's not a metaverse it's a game with with web
three tokenomics and man can you piss off a whole fucking community
in two seconds telling them that.
Honestly, I kind of love their rebuttal, to be honest.
But anyway, my wife is calling me for dinner.
You guys have a wonderful night.
Coda, it was great talking to you again.
I realize you and I had talked to each other in the past probably
like a year ago, I want to say.
Everybody else, you guys have
a good night and hope to see
you guys again in the future soon.
I'm going to send you a message
to add me on Discord with my
Awesome. Well, have a wonderful dinner look forward to it and uh
yeah yeah you too enjoy that steak and lobster you know the thing that i'm really upset about
right now more than anything is it's n real kingdoms up here guys i mean who put the title in that would be boardwalk you'd blame boardwalk
for that one who did it unreal there's a you in there big dog
i know i know i know dude code dude i gotta to say, dude, the amount of information that has come out tonight makes this, to me,
one of the most epic, special spaces that I've ever been a part of.
Thank you so much for all the, well, everything that you've said, I mean, tonight has been super special.
And everyone that's been a part of this, so make sure, and I'm just going to say this because it's real.
Because this is a recorded space,
you want to make sure that you have gone down and shared the space.
You've liked it. You've retweeted it.
If you haven't commented on it, commented on it.
You want to share it. You want to tag people.
You want people to hear this because a space
on Twitter that's been recorded can be shared anywhere across the world at any time, anywhere,
no matter where it is, as long as the person has access to X, they can listen to it anywhere.
So make sure you do that because this has been, it's a space to remember.
And I'm going to run real quick across the speaker panel
And then I'm gonna play this to close out song cuz you know, it could be that time
So because we've been more than two hours. So boardwalk, which guys say my friend
Anything else to share before you gotta go
Just that we gotta go just that um x is messing up man because it actually says unreal kingdoms on my
side and i said go to screenshot and he sent me one back that doesn't have the u i don't know what
kind of trickery is going on here but that's wild so just so you know and for the record i see what
you see boardwalk i don't see an nreal i see unreal i see unreal i see unreal you see, Boardwalk. I don't see an Nreal. I see Unreal. I see Unreal.
I see Unreal Kingdoms in there.
So who knows what the fuckery is with X right now.
Woodart, bro, I know you're still there.
I thought it was just going to be a hangout, chill space.
Turned into an alpha knowledge space, man. I mean, damn. I thought it was just going to be a hangout chill space. It turned into an alpha knowledge space, man.
I guess that's the hype the community brings, man.
And that's what I love, man.
You know, I just love the fact that we use the word builder all the time, man.
You know, a builder, a maker.
That's always what I've been classified as.
And so coming into Web3 and getting involved in such a great project community um it's just a life come true of me you know i
mean shit i've made some big calls i've done some big things this year and it's just all lining up
and everything's perfect man you know and code always talking about hitting your goals and doing
it i mean that's that's the way i live my life man i just love it you're absolutely right and dude what you're doing for this space and the people i
can't wait to see thor's uh bedtime that you're working on right now i mean it's it's going to be
amazing and uh you know the community is what makes us the people that are here is what makes us
people that are here that can again share this space like it retweet it tag people let people
know again it's because it's recorded but uh we're gonna wrap this up and i'm gonna play this out
with a song i got the song i'm gonna play the song we played it at the beginning and i'm gonna play
it again unless there's anybody that has anything else to say
We're gonna make this happen. This this has been a groundbreaking
Amazing space like literally if you've been in here the whole time listen to everything that's been talked about
with all the knowledge that code dropped the questions that we got and
The different back and forth dude this was epic
i mean well i mean you got you got to remember you have to be thankful for eugene i mean
it's not many people that could probably take an onslaught from eugene being the the 11th most
intelligent person in the metaverse space and being on a board of
directors for the UK and so forth.
refreshing for somebody like myself
to be able to have those questions
be asked and be able to actually finally be able to go in and rebuttal them
because so many people would not know how to do that.
And I'm actually kind of thankful for it.
Thank you guys for allowing me to come up here and be a part of this today.
And that was very much stimulating.
I was getting ready to go to bed
and being able to get the brain functioning and thinking
and being able to, you know,
I've had a very, you know, crazy last few weeks
being able to actually be able to
intellectually discuss what we've built with one of the smartest people in that industry
um really just speaks volumes and it just happened here at your guys's space which is only the second space on a wednesday night
so like we did yeah like an off time it's like let's do this let's do it
um you know so i'm very proud of of being able to you know, promote what we are and what we've done and why we are going to be able to excel as being
that metaverse and that multiverse. And honestly, I figured after I, you know, did spill everything
that I was going to take a beating from Eugene after that. And I definitely know what I'm talking about when it comes to
what the structure is to be able to do this and how much further we have to expand it.
And jumping into this bedtime space tonight was not what I thought it was going to be.
And it was a thousand percent more than what I thought it was going to be. And I'm super thankful. I'm super thankful that Eugene came up and asked the questions and having somebody that is intelligent
in this space that is renowned for his intelligence in this space and me not getting caught with my
pants down, being able to rebuttal and be able to, as every one of you that has been in the game knows that we've hit
every single one of those structures on that pyramid of the seven layers.
It's so refreshing. It's super refreshing for me. So thank you guys. Bedtime. You want to know it?
So thank you guys. Bedtime. You want to know it?
Thank you guys for sending this out. Get me in. Eugene, my dude.
Yeah. You know, um, thank you. You know,
everybody that's here, you know, that got to sit in, listen in and,
and get to truly understand the depth of what we've
going to keep building and what's going to keep
everybody's ready for this ride. It's about to be very
Like I said, I got a lot of love for every
one of you guys that are here that have been
in here busting your ass with us,
kicking ass and taking names. It's just going to keep coming.
We're going to keep going. We're going to keep building.
There's nothing that's going to keep stopping.
Nothing slowing the train down.
The train's left the station, and it has full speed now.
So at this point, it's just us getting to the next station, the next station, the next station,
and making sure that if there's some kind of derailments
that we get the new track laid out and keep pushing, you know, and we're just going to
keep throwing extra coal on the fire. So that way the wheels will always stay turning in case
there's any kind of bumps or hurdles or anything. And thank you guys. Thank you guys for allowing
me on this space. Thank you for giving me an hour. Um, we Where honestly, after I found out and I looked at his profile and realized who it was, you know, I finally had somebody that could possibly have hit me with something that I wasn't thinking of.
honestly get a couple one on one
gambits from a month of what
the future should be looking like and
adding in some more so that way we can expand
appreciate you all I love you all I'll be
in discord for about another hour
going to try to go to bed early since Mark
So if you want to roll us out here, Kyle, with that track, I'd appreciate it.
I'll see you guys in Discord.
Those are going to come in.
And I'll chat with you guys soon.
With that, I will definitely roll us out with a track.
I'm going to play the same track we played earlier.
This was an amazing space.
This was one for the records.
If you haven't shared this space.
Please make sure you like it.
You not only comment on it. You might tag some people.
Because even though we're about to end this space.
You can still listen to it people
can listen to it forever almost ever i have no idea i've got spaces i have recorded for like
years ago that you can record the space you can listen to it because it's recorded you can listen
to it over and over again and here we go we're gonna play this out this is the best space i
think we've ever done one of them sorry. Sorry, I hate to say it.
I do hate to say it because I feel like, you know, there's always going to be another better.
But this was the greatest.
So here we go. Oh Woo! I'm out. We came to show y'all we really not playing the same From NFTs and blockchain to PC and console we in the game
